We stayed at this RV park for 3 nights. We had a very good time. The location we chose was very nice with supplied water and electricity (50amp). The parking for RV was level, it was very clean, and we had a great view of the lake plus easy access. The only reason for the 4 star vurses 5 was because the restroom/shower facilities do not appear to be taken care of. They have no air inside, so it was extremely hot. They were full of bugs inside, and nobody wants to shower or use the restroom with bugs landing and crawling on you. Two of the restrooms had black widow spiders attached to them, which is not safe. I think weekly or biweekly pest control treatments would solve most of the problems. I also do revommend updating the toilets.

Stayed during January, and it was a decent stay. Got very snowy/icy, but the showers still remained hot and some of the cleanest bathrooms I’ve seen at a campground lately. No complaints really, just not much to do, and the sites have no privacy.
